I was struck by a craving for cup ramen.To begin with, I dont even eat real ramen. At the Chinese restaurants that my family goes to, at best they have high cla.s.s soup noodles.What I want is miso ramen with lots of bean sprouts and corn!But the hurdle for this is probably higher than the one for fast food, isnt it.If some middle school girl went to get ramen on her own, shed stand out heaps after all.So I thought that I could just compromise and eat cup ramen, but then it would probably stink up my room and expose me, and I wouldnt know what to do with the remaining rubbish either. As for packet ramen, you need to drain the first batch of water after cooking the noodles, and if I messed about in the kitchen, theyd catch me for sure.But I really wanna eat it&h.e.l.lip;Or so I was thinking, when a marvellous idea struck me like lightning.I had dried noodle snacks in my closet.

Baby Ramen

If I put them in hot water, wouldnt they be like instant ramen?So I immediately went to get a mug of hot water.I placed the baby ramen into the mug. Then I waited. I stirred it up with a fork.Itadakimasu.

&h.e.l.lip;Bland.

Eh-, what the-? This isnt yummy at all. The taste of the broth is like a few drops of soy sauce in a bucket of water, and the ramen noodles are just all squishy.It wasnt supposed to be this way. I even wasted one of my precious few snacks.But its a waste to throw it out, and I need to dispose of the evidence too, so Ill just force it all down. If I dont hurry, its going to swell up and become even bigger. What a terrifying food!

That night I learnt that making strange modifications to ready-made food is never a good thing.

Since that time with Enjou, Ririna stopped hanging about Kaburagi, and even stopped making a fuss about entering the Pivoine too. Im thankful to Enjou.Still, if you asked me if she became completely obedient, thats not the case either. She was high-handed as always around the first years, apparently.But well, if she suddenly became like a different person, that would be even more worrying, so I guess this is just right. I feel bad for her cohort though.Once, I quietly went to see how she was in cla.s.s, and when I found that all her underlings were quiet-looking girls, my heart really hurt.But with Ririnas rampage settled, and some semblance of peace back in my life, both my stomach pains and gluttony were cured. Thank goodness.If I continued eating the way I did, Id turn into a baby tanuki again, you know?Also, theres the matter of my debt with Enjou, but he hasnt come to talk about it at all. How disquieting. Was it a joke, maybe? No, I doubt it.My mum from my old life would always go on and on about how I should never be in debt, so I wish he would just hurry up and collect it already.

Anyway, while I spent my days like that, one day a notification for Summer Camp came.It was going to be held at a health resort linked to Suiran, and would be held for three days and two nights.Last year I couldnt partic.i.p.ate because of my remedials, but this year I want to join in if I can!Only, even though it seems so fun, apparently not many people partic.i.p.ate. None of the girls around me seemed to have any interest either?Why? I asked, only to find out that everybody else had their own plans over the summer, or they hated being woken up early, or that they didnt think there was anything fun about going to some plateau in the middle of nowhere.Yeah&h.e.l.lip; I dont suppose itwouldhold much appeal to a bunch of rich boys and rich girls.But I want to try it.

When I got home, I immediately told my parents my intentions.But Okaasama didnt look very happy to hear it. She gave me reasons like, A daughter of the Kisshouin family, partic.i.p.ating in such a plebeian event? and Your skin will burn, and Reika-san, you would never be able to handle such a Spartan lifestyle.Even if you call it a Spartan lifestyle, its aSuiranSummer Camp so the health resort is on par with a hotel. Not only that, all of the cooking preparations and cleaning is handled by the staff, so its really nothing more than a holiday.But maybe there are so few people who partic.i.p.ate because the mainstream view is the same as Okaasamas? Speaking of which, I never heard about Oniisama going to Summer Camp either.But I wanted to go no matter what, so I begged her and somehow got permission.

When I handed my application form to Sensei, she seemed incredibly shocked that I was partic.i.p.ating. Is it really that minor an event?But its true that none of the girls in my group were partic.i.p.ating at all. And once I realised that, I started to feel a little nervous. What am I gunna do if it ends up as a repeat of last years remedials?Whether or not she knew what I was thinking about, Sensei immediately said Then please be the leader for the girls!Eehhh.

This is my first time partic.i.p.ating, so perhaps I am not the most suited to be leader&h.e.l.lip;

Its fine! I believe in you, Kisshouin-san!

In the end she forced it on me, and I once again ended up as the odd-jobs person. Aaah~And I found out that the leader of the boys was the maidenly Cla.s.s Rep.Long time no see, Cla.s.s Rep.

Youre partic.i.p.ating in the Summer Camp, Reika-san!?

Yes. They say that everything is an experience.

I see. But if youre the leader of the girls, I can really rest easy. Ill be in your care.

And I in yours.

When I checked the itinerary, I found barbeque and fireworks written. This is it! This is what Ive been waiting for! This so-called plebeian event!Ive always wanted to play with fireworks, but I never did have a chance. Im so looking forward to it.And given how pleb-like and minor this event is, naturally that duo wont be partic.i.p.ating, and neither will those gyarus.Aahh, I think Illfiiinallybe able to relax a little!

I was so excited that I even began packing, even though it was still far into the future.Because Okaasama has been so noisy about it, I made sure to pack sunscreen. Insect repellent spray, to torches, to medicine, to emergency rations. Also, hmmm, maybe a bell and flute too&h.e.l.lip;? Or so I thought as I crammed stuff in, and I ended up with an unthinkably huge luggage for a two-night trip.If its only 3 days and 2 nights, I wouldnt even need a suitcase, would I.But I dont know what to take out. Should I just send it there?

Ahh, Im so looking forward to this!

To clarify, a health resort or(hoyoujo) is sort of like a lodge or resort-type thing that major companies have, and is used for training camps and recreation camps (often for relaxation and bonding).Suiran is obviously not a company, but the term literally means recuperation place so its probably more in-line with a health resort, hence my translation choice.
